The single handed beastliness of a thrashing that Irishman Shahid O'fridi alone was going to administer on the Welshman may be prevented by the rain.

Amputation works quite well or so I've heard.
 
Simon Jones should be playing shouldn't he?

He's turning out to be as bad as Trescothick when it comes to performing for his county.
 
Rained all through the night - assumed the same for today, so dint prepare for a game.

Bright bright sunshine here in Cardiff:)
 
Just got throught to Sophia Gdns.

Play to start (on time) at 10.45 am.
 
what time is the match starting? is there no way of watching it on sky sports via the red button on the remote control?

10.45am
 
No,

You're getting the far superior Worcestershire vs Lancashire match on Sky instead, at the best ground in the country I might add.

i would agree there. Wish i could've gone to Cardiff today but problems came up. Hopefully O'fridi can help with another Irish win.
 
How much more time until the match starts?

Any link for a scorecard or something?

y dnt scotland bid for a couple of pakistani players like ireland did?

i swear inzi wanted to play county cricket
 
Saqqi gets another one...
MJ Cosgrove c Morgan b Saqlain Mushtaq 75 (81m 57b 7x4 3x6) SR: 131.58
Bowlers: O M R W Econ
Saqlain Mushtaq 3.3 0 17 2 4.86 (0nb, 0w)

is any one watching this game..? How is Saqqi bowling..??
 
Afridi starts of well - one run from his over.

Saqi and Afridi bowling in tandem.
 
Where would Hants be without KP?

They were really struggling at 13/4 at one stage.. but he's seen off the new ball with skill and now he's opening his shoulders.

52 off 42 balls.
 
Expect Afridi to perform with the bat if he doesn't do well with the ball :D
 
Rob H,

Did you really enjoy the last match with Ireland against Hants? At least this one is between two evenly matched teams rather than sloggers against pie-throwers.

I look foward to seeing how KP throws it away once he reaches the 90's.
 
Yeah he is.

Carberry just got out so Warne should be in to bat fairly soon.
